missshari_rOmg....reading your last comment just helped me a whole lot...I was gonna text you to find out what ben nye powder I should use...you answered it...since we're about the same shade (I think)

melisajbeauty@missshari_r I like to use the Ben nye banana powder and topaz, I would suggest the topaz because it is easy to go overboard with the banana. I think topaz would suit you better.

missshari_rThe highlight I use is NYX CJ06 Glow. I think I need something to put on top of the concealer to prevent creasing prior to applying powder. If that the correct order?

melisajbeautyYou would a primer on 1st, then concealer and then a powder to set it which helps with the creasing. I usually put a little eye primer under my eyes. And remember to cover any dark circles with a peachy concealer or foundation similar to your skin tone 1st to correct darkness b4 applying a lighter concealer. @missshari_r

melisajbeauty@envysuccess you can use a concealer to cover your blemishes, my fav are mac prolongwear concealer and black opal total coverage concealing foundation (I use it a concealer).

heylookitsashFound you from buzzfeed and I'm so glad! I've never done contouring or worn foundation because I'm worried about how it would work with my dry skin. Any suggestions for a moisturizing product that won't look cakey?

melisajbeauty@heylookitsash I'm glad you did too 😉 black opal foundation stick is moisturizing. You can swipe the stick on the areas you want and blend it in with a wedge sponge or blending brush, then apply a little powder on top to set it. And with any product blending and using the amount you need is key because all foundation can look cakey if too much is applied.
